Bhut Jolokia - World’s Hottest Chilli

http://mutiny.in/2007/02/26/bhut-jolokia-worlds-hottest-chilli/


Such is the hotness of the chilli that it can drive away the ghost, and hence the name ” says Anandita Dutta Tamuly who is getting ready to eat not 1 or 2, but 60 Bhut Jolokias in two minutes to make an entry into the Guinness Book of World Records. Since the legendary chilli from Assam made it to the Guinnes Book last year, maybe it is time for Anandita to prove her mettle.

I live in Virginia, I purchased seeds of Bhut Jolokia from NMSU and just harvested my first red pepper 8/29/07. I took it to work where I have a couple of chile head buddies. We all ate some of the Bhut Jolokia. I ate several large pieces with the vein attached. I had to suppress my gag reflex at first, then my jaw got numb, then my legs got weak. I sat down and enjoyed one of the most pleasent HIGHS! I felt like I was going to halucinate. I wonder if I would have if I had eaten more. I will find out soon. I guess it was an endorphin HIGH! I had never experienced anything like it before and I eat habaneros and jalapenos on a regular basis.

I see a new competition heating up for producing the world's hottest chile.

Bhut Jokokia is an accidental discovery just like its predecessor Naga Jolokia is, there are many more in North East of India waiting to be discovered.

High, huh? Wow! I've never eaten a chili like that. It WAS a chili, right? Not a mushroom?

Actually it was telivised on local TV here, she did 63 in two minutes and survived, I don't think even one for a veteran chili eater here would be survivable.

Sixty red hot Bhoot Jalakia chillies, two minutes and now 25-year-old Anandita Dutta Tamuli from Assam is hoping to get into the Guinness Book of World Records.
